How Delta paid N24m into Ofili-Ajumogobia’s account – Witness

Clement Okaranwolu, a former customer relations officer with Access Bank Plc on Friday said the Delta State Government paid into the current bank account of Justice Rita Ofili-Ajumogobia twice in August 2011.

Okaranwolu told the court that he was the judge’s account officer at the time.

He said the state credited the judge’s account with N15m on August 5, 2011; and with N9m on August 29, 2011.

He said the judge also owned two dollar accounts into which lodgments were constantly made by herself and other individuals.

He said one Ken Mozia paid $20,000 into a domiciliary account, numbered 0002130929 in May 2008.

Others are Tony Iwobi, who paid $10,000 into the account on April 16, 2008; Ali D, who paid in $10,000 on June 16, 2007;  Subedetu, who paid in $3,000 on April 12, 2011; and AB/GT which paid in $9,900 on April 30, 2013.

Justice Ofili-Ajumogobia, a serving judge of the Federal High Court, is currently standing trial before a Lagos State High Court in Ikeja for alleged bribery and unlawful enrichment.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission accused her of receiving a total of $793,800 in several tranches from different sources between 2012 and 2015 “so as to have a significant increase in your assets that you cannot reasonably explain the increase in relation to your lawful income.”
